I'm pretty lucky to work in a place where the men are statistically hotter than the average. It's the entertainment business and a young company run by a fairly shallow gay man, so all levels of it tend to be young, good looking men. There are many bad points, but this one's pretty good.
I'm pretty certain one of the ones I consider to be the hottest is attracted to me. When I'm not supposed to be looking or out of the side of my eye, I seem to gain a great deal more of his attention than otherwise. Yet we don't speak. At all. I'm not trying to play a game - I just cannot think of anything to say to him worth saying. This has been for a few months now. I realize we're characterized as much by what we don't do as what we do, so I know I'm not doing myself any favors with this silence, but at the same time, I really don't want the conversation to be as nothing when we speak as when we don't.
On his end, I'm not 100% what to think. As sure as I am that he's attracted, I'm sure he's avoiding any conversation during the day. In truth, I think we're somewhat on the same wavelength of not wanting to show that we're interested, because neither of us is used to someone like the other. He's well-entrenched in the company, works his way through the social world, and looks like he walked either out of a painting or a clothing commercial. I'm quiet, reserved, and look like I could do better on my own. In spite of my current avatar, which is me, I'm not exactly a socialite or party animal. And I'm pretty sure I'm not imagining this - there are plenty of other good-looking guys I'd love the attention of, but find none of it. He's the only one I catch sneaking peeks.
